Happy the blood test went well

I have been taking Xarelto for a month now and today was the first time that I had to have my blood drawn for my upcoming physical. I was happy there was no extra bleeding...I will wait to see if there is bruise later. In fact, I have noticed less bruising since being on Xarelto rather than aspirin. My veins are also hard to find but this time everything went well. Just sharing.
